It’s been a very busy Queen’s Birthday weekend, filled with several unexpected activities.

Firstly one of my neighbours knocked on my door on Friday night and invited me round for dinner, totally unexpected and lovely.

On Saturday morning I got up earlier than usual to go to a Lego exhibition. It was way better and bigger than I expected and a lot more people showed up than I expected, but it was well worth the wait – big long queue. Saturday night I went to a dinner/birthday party.

Sunday I went to Dad’s for lunch.

Today I flew to Wellington which was all a bit unexpected too, a week ago I didn’t know we would be doing that. Work is having a big team conference on Tuesday and rather than get up hideously early tomorrow morning in time for the 9:00 am meeting, I decided to treat myself to a hotel for the night and fly down the day before. The biggest unexpected event was that Te Papa are currently showing an Andy Warhol exhibition, which I didn’t know about, but once I did, I could hardly wait to get here. It was brilliant.
